I'm suppose to take over a landlord position on a home from my father, but the people who live there don't really know how to use a computer. I live 1 1/2 hours from them and i'm suppose to collect rent every 2 weeks. I was told my uncle would collect it for him, because he lived nearby. I'm planning on them having me mail the rent instead, but I wanted to know if there's a better way.
theres this thing called paynearme. Its found at many gas stations like 711 and other places, I barely know about it. But you can go in there, pay with cash and then 711 wires the money to you. So its like the easiest way, cause then the 711 clerk can help them out too. I dont know if this was helpful but look into it..

Although you say they are tech illiterate, I'm going to assume they have a smart phone (that's all they make these days right???). If the answer is "yes", it doesn't get simpler than the Cash App.
I have my tenants take it to my bank and deposit it directly into the account. I don't allow them to make excuses. Those are the rules I've set, and if they break them then they run the risk of incurring late fees. If enough late fees stack up, then they get an eviction notice.
It may seem a bit harsh, but I don't have time to chase them down for rent. I'm working hard to make sure that they have a nice place to live. The least they can do is take 15 minutes out of their schedule ONCE per month and go deposit the rent.
